Charlie did not meet his goal because he used more than 50 gallons per day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

x be the number of gallons used by charlie.

Charlie's goal;

x<50

Gallons used in 30 days = 1524 gallons

Gallons used in 1 day = $\frac{Total\ gallons}{No.\ of\ days}$

Gallons used in 1 day = $\frac{1524}{30} = 50.8$

Therefore,

Charlie used 50.8 gallons of water per day.

Charlie did not meet his goal because he used more than 50 gallons per day.
